I think this Imperial Remnant’s last ditch shot at establishing some dominance comes in the form of a plan to attempt cloning historically force sensitive beings (Yodas) and genetically modifying them somehow, which would, of course, resonate pretty strongly with The Mandalorian, who remembers how a mercenary thief wearing his culture’s stolen armor agreed to a similar bargain before the Clone Wars started - said wars, of course, leaving him a foundling and scarring him for life.

Essentially, Herzog’s character might be asking himself “Why did the Jedi decide to clone a stupid bounty hunter when they could have cloned their greatest master?” and now a Mandalorian bounty hunter has to decide between restoring his honor (and his culture) by honoring this imperial’s requests in return for all the beskar he could want, or denying this imperial the chance to re-establish their rule through the exploitation of this Yadpole, and saving Baby Yoda from being cloned by the Empire’s mad scientists.

Or maybe it’s none of that, who knows.
